Do you guys think it is safe to shoot?
Slayer,
Based on your description, I don't see why not. However, if in doubt why not take it to a smith or test fire it, using the old tire method? When I was a kid, I took a lot of chances that I would no longer take. .....

These actions were great at popping firing pins when dry-fired. I guess one of my first "smithing" project, was making firing pins out of old screwdrivers. I did not have a lath so I used a drill press and files. Learned the hard way to put a radius where the pin meets the body. .....

Be Safe !!!
